Us versus them. Rich Versus poor. What the hell is wrong with us? The FBI is getting ready to investigate some Catholic Diocese for Child pornography, molestation, sexual assault on children. I know. Yeah, right? We go after doctors, movie stars, policemen, priests, coaches and Democrats, and their donors.
We don't go after Republicans, Lawyers, Billionaires, judges, and certain politicians.
We "go after" certain people; while giving cursory lip service to others. We go after "predator priests", But give lip service to Judges applying to be on the supreme court. We "go after" Movie stars" and publicize their "victims" in print, Tv, and film. We elect billionaires to an office and "blow off" their victims claims as "lies" and "sour grapes". Why?
Why are some victim believed and others are liars? Some rapes are "brutal" and cruel, but others we suddenly "question" the victim's intentions and reasons. We destroy"their" credibility, their remembrances, and their lives, rather than attack the perpetrators. We send some rapists to prison for life, and put others in the White House and on The Supreme Court?
We crack jokes about honest memories at rallies about the Victim or politicians that hurt reporters but condemn a Democrat for making a sexual joke and taking an inappropriate photo and "demand" he resigns. He did. We are willing to believe some and condemn others.
We do "limited scope, time-sensitive" investigations of some people, not asking any questions that may show or insinuate wrongdoing, but open the Full scope of the FBI to investigate priests who may have molested children over 40 years ago? Kavanaugh is given a weak, barely recognizable idea of what is misconstrued as an "investigation"; but Catholic priest "accused" of similar actions are being given the "full" scale of a deep, no holds bar investigation? Wasnt Kavanaugh Catholic too?
We send a College doctor to prison for effectively life for assaulting children, yet Our "president" was accused of doing the very same thing to a young girl with another millionaire who had purchased her for just such a reason, and "Shazam!", A statute of limitations is "in effect" and no statements are taken or given. Why is one group worthy of the full force of the law, and others deemed unworthy? Why do our laws protect one group and seek to prove their innocence, yet others are deemed "monsters and liars" and prosecuted to the max on circumstantial evidence barely with a whimper? Certain people are "held accountable" but others are "being lied about"? Ones, as the "president" states are innocent till proven guilty, yet we openly let some be Guilty till proven innocent? Rich versus poor. Rich get the benefit of the doubt if they are Republican they're given the "edge" in believability, but Democrats, women, poor people, well they need to "prove" their innocence, and then sometimes that isn't enough.
Kellyanne Conway "says" she was "sexually assaulted" and she understands, yet she offered no proof, details, witnesses, or evidence to prove her claim. No journalist investigated it. We are just supposed to accept the word. Dr. Ford offered some evidence, some witnesses, and a vivid memory of the event, and we dismissed it and her and allowed jokes to be made about her horrid memories and put her attempted rapist on the Supreme Court. We say Stormy Daniels was a "porn Star" so somehow she is unbelievable, yet Kellyanne Conway is. People have corroborated Stormy's story, the payments, the Presidents deceit and lies about it. Yet Kelly Anne just states she was sexually assaulted and everyone just "believes her. Why?
When you vote, remember that he (Donald Trump) Created this us against them. He created two brands of justice, laws, rules. His Parties and everyone else. Republicans and the wealthy, and Democrats and the rest of us.
Evangelicals may "pray" he changes. He becomes a "God-fearing" Christian. But in waiting they are allowing his evil to flourish and grow and expand. God isn't listening to them. They overlook the evil he does for the good they "hope" he may do, someday. And if they make a few bucks waiting for it, all the better. They forget God isn't political. He is all Our God, not just Evangelical, white, Republican folks. He is Judaism, Christian, Muslim.
Republicans want you angry at everyone else. All the "others". Browns, Blacks, Indians, Orientals, Democrats, Liberals and Independents. They lie and tell you they want to take your guns, your jobs, your freedoms. They want you to fear change, new and fresh, different. Fear the future. Fear life itself. Turn from our values, our beliefs, our way of life out of fear from everything else. The rich are laughing and getting wealthier. We are the suckers, the brunt of their jokes.
They are counting on our fear. Our indecisiveness. They hope we don't vote, hell, they're counting on it.
It's time to put things right. To stop the direction we are heading in, and go back to the future we used to seek. It's time to vote these old white men out and replace them with fresh excitement and a brighter future. Where people in North Dakota don't fear a tiny violent gang called MS13, because they will never be as strong as the power our President tries to give them.
Check your voter registration. Make sure you can vote and then Vote. This is OUR country, not just the Republicans. Gays, Blacks, Transgenders, women, Mexican Americans, Buddhists, Athiest, Christians, Orientals and the poor, sick and disabled all have a duty and sayso. Be heard. Be seen. Be counted.
